How to do the right thing with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Ressa
This is Maria Ressa like you've never seen her before.
In her most personal interview yet, I speak to my mentor and friend... who also happens to have won a Nobel Peace Prize in 2021. Maria talks about the most formative moments of her life, how she sticks to her values in a fragmented world, and what the Nobel meant to her.
"The minute you become corrupt, you can't help it," she says. "You will follow a path. You will never be clean again, right?"
